COE 90/ 3-4mm Stringer Green Glow in the Dark / 1 or 2 ounce

This listing is for 1 or 2 ounces of Glow in the Dark 90 COE 3-4mm Stringer! Pieces are approximately 10" in length. (Some pieces might be a bit shorter or longer). All stringer is hand pulled by me in the PNW using Bullseye Glass. Inconsistencies in diameter may occur because of the handmade nature.

Stringer is so much fun to use! You can use it to add detail to your project, create decorative sheet glass, use a candle to bend it... the possibilities are truly endless!

All photos are of an actual batch and are as true to color as possible. Due to the many variations in monitors and browsers, colors may appear different on different monitors. I can not guarantee that the color you see on your device is the same as in person.

Glow in the dark glass has phosphorescence... meaning it contains a special substance called phosphor. Phospors give off visible light after being energized. (This means that they have to soak up light for a while before they will glow!) I use strontium aluminate which is a new phosphate that allows a "super" glow! It stores about 10 times more light than zinc sulfate (Another type of phosphor used to create glow in the dark items). As a result... the glow lasts longer!

Why the green glow?

The human eye is particularly sensitive to green light... so green appears brightest to us. Green phosphor also absorbs a wide range of wavelengths of light to produce a glow. Other colors require specific wavelengths of light to work. Green is easy to charge, long lasting and bright! UV light and sunlight will always give you the best charge.
